About a week, when i got my TTs i absolutely sucked so i gave up after like 15 minutes or so mixing, next day i sucked so i tried to think of how the hell it's possible to mix tracks, then i tried different methods in my head which took me about 3 days after getting the TTs. Each session i think was 20 minutes or less cause each time i fucked up it depressed me to quit try again later. So after i learnt the method of mixing, i applied it and it worked but the tracks werent sounding good. Next day, it just hit me and i had gotten the hang of it and was pulling off mixes which i was happy with.

I think you can pull off anything that you really want to achieve, at the stage where i was i was really anxious to get well and i concentrated. But then again everyones time to beatmatch will vary from their determination.
